"Packing the Court: The Rise of Judicial Power and the Coming Crisis of the Supreme Court" by James MacGregor Burns examines the evolution of the US Supreme Court's role in American politics and society. Burns likely critiques the increasing power of the judiciary and its impact on the balance of power in government. The book may explore the implications of judicial activism, the appointment process, and potential reforms, sparking debate about the Court's role in interpreting the Constitution and shaping the nation's laws. It's a thought-provoking analysis of the Court's influence and its potential consequences for American democracy.
